İŞ STRATEJİSİ OLARAK DIŞ KAYNAK KULLANIMI VE ULUSLARARASI TİCARETTEKİ ROLÜ

Öz

Outsourcing global ve rekabetçi ticaret alanında yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Outsourcingde şirketler özgün faaliyetleri üzerine odaklanırken, diğer hizmetleri yabancı partnerlerinden tedarik etmektedir. Özellikle bazı gelişmekte olan ülkeler daha önce gelişmiş ülkelerin gerçekleştirdiği outsourcing faaliyetlerini yapmaktadır. Bu durum gelişmiş ülkelerin bazılarında işsizliğe neden olmaktadır. Gelişmiş ülkeler avantajlı oldukları sektörlerde outsourcingin işgücü üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerini azaltmaya çalışmaktadır. Outsourcing genellikle telekominikasyon, gayrimenkul, yönetim, lojistik, üretim, müşteri hizmetleri, insan kaynakları ve finansal hizmetlerde uygulanmaktadır. Şirketler outsourcing’in yaygın olarak uygulanması ile yapabilecekleri en iyi işi yapma fırsatını yakalayacaklardır.
